DE0622: IHS Monthly CDE Call: Ensuring Local Anesthesia Success in Clinical Practice [Recorded webinar]
Sound evidence-based local anesthesia practices can serve as a backbone for practice efficiency and positive patient feedback. Routine local anesthesia injection practices of nerve blocks and infiltration techniques provide a high degree of success although in many cases of acute pain or unique 'tough to numb' patients these will often fail to provide profound anesthesia leading to poor procedural outcomes and future treatment avoidance. A review of physiological insights from the literature, intraosseous anesthesia technique fundamentals, and patient examples will enhance practitioners ability to manage difficult situations chairside following the discussion.
Upon completion of this webinar, participants should be able to:
1. Understand physiological factors associated with acute and chronic pain and associated management strategies;
2. Describe different intraosseous anesthesia approaches; and
3. Describe the rationale, indications, and contraindications for different anesthesia approaches.
